Yall forgetting the qualifications. How does I earn

Go to college. While at college, get summer internships or co-ops

Damn. I love school, but I hate how long it takes.

Yeah, totally agree. They say though that those who go to college, despite the crippling dept, will get bigger and better raises faster so it ends up being worth it. Assuming you choose the right major of course.

The right major. Something that pays well + job security. On top of that, I highly value job satisfaction. Problem is that I would be happiest studying stories and film and game design, but I know that is a tough road.

Please advise.

Unfortunately I think you either need to choose job satisfaction or money. Some people, like myself, are very lucky and have both at their job (I'm a quality engineer) but most people choose one or the other. My reccomendation is to always choose the money. The money can eventually lead you to a job you love AND that can pay well. So maybe try like comp sci? Not sure what your strengths are, or anything about you for that matter lol

I'm not good at recognizing my own strengths. All I know is my interests. What should be my next step? I want to prioritize money, but really need to be happy at work because it's been to affecting my state of mind.

Right right, well there's no rush to choosing a career/college/whatever. I have no idea how old you are, but there is no rush. You gotta find out what you're good at, but i don't know too much about finding strengths or weaknesses for people. I was always good at math, physics, problem solving, etc. So engineering seemed like a good fit and it was. Maybe start basic and write down what you like to do, how you accomplish tasks, thought process, then kind of go from there. Again, not sure how old you are, but maybe see a guidance counselor or something. Having the right state of mind is important to me too, but you need to make money to survive, so it may have to suffer for money...or it may not if you plan correctly

lol, no one cares, sadly. My GPA was 3.8 and I'm making a whopping 11/hr. There's room for advancement, but still.


It can make a difference. Where I work if we get a pile of resumes for an opening, generally the people who post their GPA and have a solid one like that will bubble for the top. If we're only budgeting for 5 or 10 candidates for an interview, a good GPA can be make or break for getting in the door.

true that, i know plenty of companies that only even consider you if you have a certain GPA. it can totally make a difference

People on here make $100K right out of college. You should've majored in science.


i studied chemistry...

job market sucks.


Chemistry is a stepping stone degree like Psychology. Unless you're going for a doctorate with chemistry or a masters in some cross-field science, all you have is the ability to work in a lab for just above minimum wage.


Imagine studying for 4 years in a difficult major just to get paid slightly above fast food workers.


An undergraduate chem major has no skills. At that level all they've done is memorize things that can be googled and learned how to do things like balance equations which tools do for you. It means the person has a strong fundamental knowledge and knows their way around a lab, but like I said... they don't have a skill yet. I agree that lab workers deserve more pay for sure, but it's not a high skill job.

pretty much. if you really enjoy chemistry/chemicals that much and don't want to do extra schooling, might as well have been a chemical engineer i guess

Young Justice is getting a s3 afaik. Netflixs is doing it.

Ooooh, I didn't know about this. That just made me happy

It's not Netflix doing it anymore. DC is doing their own streaming service.

I remember hearing about that with the live action Teen Titans series. Not to sure what to expect from it tbh. At the very least, I might sub for a month or two to watch the shows I'm interested in.

if you work with sensitive stuff I can see them wanting to get rid of you right away once you're basically already "leaving", the security is probably just policy thing even if you aren't making any trouble
